A skill of mine that was strengthened through being in AP Bio was problem solving and application of knowledge. In AP Bio, both on the AP exam and in Mrs. Flannery’s class, the tests are not just regurgitations of content you have learned, but applications of the things you have learned to arrive at logical conclusions. While this task was difficult in the beginning of the year, it became easier as my skills strengthened, and it was helpful for not just biology, but all of my other classes.
